*-ChriZ-* Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Surprise Releases only work when the material is without a doubt excellent. He deserves this reaction for that album and I hope the upcoming weeks will be even more humbling Edited June 18, 2022 by *-ChriZ-*

Cruel Summer Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 It’s pretty fascinating to observe this debut in the broader context of how other stars have done lately with their debuts. Before this I would have assumed a Drake surprise drop would be the biggest debut of the year on the BB200, unless Taylor drops 1989 TV in November, but with these numbers it’s looking like Harry will keep that for now. In the thread about predicting Beyoncé’s first week, there were also posts pointing out how Post, Billie, The Weeknd, etc have done lately, and of course there’s 30 to consider - the industry is changing faster than I thought. Although, I guess a big factor is that it’s probably not out on CD yet, right?
TaylenaStan Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Even as a surprise drop this isnt that good for him imo, would have expected something between 80-100M But this year is super weird in general, feels like there are no hits and almost no albums are sticking Just a few exceptions like As It Was, Bad Bunnys album..

I feel like these musicians are becoming arrogant and lazy. They thought with their name and past success, they could stay on top forever thus putting less effort and time with their music. Drake, Billie, Ed and Adele (I love her) oh and Ariana had been releasing the same sound for a few singles and albums in a row now so I'm not really suprised they are flopping. Taylor is the only one making effort with pure sales. Now that Beyoncé is stepping up her game, it'll be interesting to see when the album arrives later.

I can tell u as much as a teacher of middle and highschool students (in Germany): My kids are mostly listening to retro songs from the 80/90/2000s/2010s. I barely hear them listen to new music at all.
Bloodflowers. Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 We wanted real house music, not those washed up repeated house loops

I was thinking the same thing. First The Weeknd dropped a flop, then Posty, now Drake. And that last song Bieber dropped flopped. The boys need to step it uppppp!!! im surprised Drakes numbers dropped that much honestly.

By the Water Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 Drake stans on twitter can no longer drag evermore
Gaia Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 I think he will lose his god status if he keeps releasing these dud albums
fridayteenage Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 day 2: i like you - 1.65 million. About the same as Falling Back. late night talking - 2.52 million. About the same as Jimmy Cooks. n95 - 2.76 million. (die hard 2.14, grief 2.08) moscow mule - 1.87 million. (despues de la playa 1.66, about the same as Falling Back) I remember when people thought Kendrick's album was a bit divisive for being not catchy/dance-y enough.
